Can you please link to the update patches page on the downloads page. I was searching in archived releases!

There is already a link to the upgrades page:

If you are having problems downloading the patch from the admin panel, you can download the package from the upgrade patches page and install it like a mod, as instructed above.

so is this update ready to be installed?

has the update been fixed now?

I would like to know this for myself as well. I'm also try to understand if we do need to upgrade (for security issues) or that is not an issue anymore. I keep reading about other people going back to 2.0.6.

My server has 5.3.27 . Does it mean that I cannot longer use SMF or ?? All I'm asking is for whoever knows what the problems or solutions are, just to give us a bit of help.

Kindred, could you please let me and other users know, what are we suppose to do if anything, with this 2.0.7 patch?

Can I just stay on 2.0.6 and wait for a 2.0.8? Will it ever be a 2.0.8 ?

Do I need to get in touch with Host and ask them to upgrade to a higher PHP version? (but what about those people still having problems with php 5.5.x)

Is something wrong with my setup maybe?

I also see lots of people not having any problems at all, and that just adds more confusion...

I'm one of those user who got the WSOD after installing the 2.0.7, and that in itself would have not been a big deal as you can still install mods in other ways. But I cannot get past all the other issues, like missing posts, mods stop working (not because of incompatibility), corrupted pages, missing pages. At first I thought it was a problem with my setup, but by reverting to 2.0.6 everything works beautifully again. I did try installing 2.0.7 three times, but not luck. Then when I began to read on this forum all the other members reporting problems after installing the 2.0.7, I said to myself. "Oh good, I'm not the only one having all those problems. Now they will definitely find what the problem is and move on...."

I'm happy to stay on 2.0.6 as it works flawless and again I thanks everyone who made SMF what it is today. I really enjoyed the past few years modding along...

Cheers

As noted in the original post, 2.0.7 has no security fixes.
It is required if your host is running php5.5

2.0.6 will continue to run fine on php5.3
2.0.8, if it is released, will probably require you to upgrade to 2.0.7 first, if you want to use the patch version.

Looks like (s)he already has in the Albanian board ;) (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=519495.0).

If this is the case, please be patient before opening another topic.  If no answer has been given by tomorrow, then I suggest opening a topic in the English 2.0.x Support board.

Considering before iThePunisher posted, the last message in the Albanian support board was dated April 2012, it is unlikely he will get an answer any time soon...


Take a peek at what I'm doing! ;D

This is usually related to wrong theme paths (shouldn't happen in a clean install) or missing/inaccessible files...

Check the content of the folder Themes/default and all subfolders and check the files permissions/ownership.

No there is not. There is large upgrade or nothing. Why don't you put that in the downloads section since it's not a mod and makes no sense where it is?!

I would NEVER look for it there.

The link Oldies gave you is for the upgrades page, where you can find it ;)

Yes, but if he didn't give me that link I would NEVER have found it in a million years.

Yeah, we can debate that the wording needs a little bit of "love" :P

This isn't a support topic, but you should upload it to your website and point your browser at it (ie, run it from your address bar)

Wow, thanks! :)
Finaly i've got it. I wasnt sure how to do it properly.

Yeah, i know, but i was writing about it yesterday: http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=519647.msg3677489#msg3677489
But unfortunately nobody told me what to do.

Kindred

that doesn't change the fact that THIS IS NOT A SUPPORT TOPIC.  Just because no one repsonds quickly in your other topic does not make it OK to start cross posting.
